Western Fantasy: The Young Lady Gets Played by the Transmigrated Villain Again

[No System + Western Fantasy + Magic Academy + Schemes + Lighthearted Daily Life + Ruin Exploration + Small Ensemble Cast + Competitions + Plot Deviations]

The day Josia recalled her memories of a past life, she learned that she was a disposable character in a novel.

The protagonist was a veteran reader who had transmigrated into a villain, while she was the tsundere young lady who would ultimately die for the villainous male lead, Kane.

Josia made her decision on the spot: if she couldn't beat him, she could at least stay out of his way!

But she never imagined that the infamous villainous male lead, who should have been following his own path to a comeback, would somehow become part of her life.

Academy competitions, ruin expeditions, ancient magical treasures, strange beauties, unknown dangers... Kane always managed to drag her into trouble.

The plot she knew so well kept veering off course, and Kane seemed to be hiding secrets of his own.

A young lady trying to escape her predetermined fate, and a transmigrated villain trying to get ahead of the game.

When two "readers" in different roles clash, who will outmaneuver whom?

P.S.

A [sword and sorcery] story, not Japanese-style Western fantasy. A high-magic setting, an eclectic blend of Western fantasy, with thrilling battles interspersed with lots of everyday life. Inspired by real-world mythology, but set in an entirely fictional world, entirely fictional... The protagonist grows over time, and the story takes a little while to warm up.

(The couple are bickering rivals who fall in love over time, haha _(:з"∠)_

A shameless, troublemaking guy × a tsundere, sharp-tongued girl who excels at both brains and brawn.

It's bickering, bickering, and more bickering. Later on, they even lead everyone astray.)
